New UAW Demands Ignore Months of Good Faith Bargaining

GREENSBORO, NC – After previously agreeing to what the UAW referred to as a “record” tentative agreement with Mack Trucks, United Auto Workers leadership today presented the company with a surprising new list of unreasonable economic demands, seemingly returning to day one of negotiations, and ignoring three months of good faith bargaining between the parties.

Given the UAW’s stated demands, Mack advised the union that the company looks forward to returning to the bargaining table on Monday and hopes the UAW leadership makes more realistic proposals.

“Unfortunately, the new UAW economic demands are completely unrealistic,” said Mack President Stephen Roy.  “We’ve already shown that we’re prepared to provide our employees with significantly improved wages, but we are not prepared to jeopardize the company.”

More information about the Oct. 1, 2023 Tentative Agreement can be found on the 2023 Mack-UAW Labor Negotiations website.
